what do you think about RWBY as an anime
482 posts and 228 image replies omitted.>>25425LMAO no, Blake has negative rizz, its what makes all her relationships in the show appear so awful, besides the fact that she's every other bad girlfriend stereotype rolled into one.
>>25424 Ren is absolutely no threat because Mr.Rooftop Korean is absolutely exclusive with Nora/gay. Qrow is so much older than them that it wouldn't work either - he's obviously either a pair for Winter or Willow (or both). So yeah Jaune works for the main characters as the harem deuteragonist. And he's not bland at all, the best harem protags aren't bland, despite the memes.
>>25431 >Muh Jaune is le cuck! <Cuck Cuck CuckFound the redditor
>>25432>Ren is absolutely no threat because Mr.Rooftop Korean is absolutely exclusive with Nora.As a main cast member, Nora would inevitably get swept up into the harem vortex.
>Qrow is so much older than them that it wouldn't work eitherHe would just throw off the dynamic as a man in his sexual prime. And at some point they would need to think about filling out the older woman archetype.
>And he's not bland at all, the best harem protags aren't bland, despite the memes.That only works for 'subversive' harems, that can market the character towards a specific demographic. RWBY needs one of the most average protagonists of all time for its audience to self-insert as.
>>25425I can totally see that. Just roll back her personality to the start of the series and she should be perfect reverse-harem protagonist, with the harem members constantly monologueing at her and saying how special she is.
>>25433>>25434 >reddit meme Do I need to teach you about how reddit steals memes? They literally took this from /rwbyg/
>C-cuckProjection is a hell of a drug.
>No-argumentThere's nothing to argue against - it's just screeching about a character you don't like because you have no taste.
>>25435>As a main cast member, Nora would inevitably get swept up into the harem vortex. That's why I gave the option of making Ren gay, it would fit.
>He would just throw off the dynamic as a man in his sexual prime. And at some point they would need to think about filling out the older woman archetype. Willow, Winter, Raven, take your pick.
>That only works for 'subversive' harems, that can market the character towards a specific demographic. RWBY needs one of the most average protagonists of all time for its audience to self-insert as. I disagree, at least in regards to the fandom I'm a part of. It's why I called out the other two for their r/RWBY / Critics tier opinion. Only the worst fans want a bland harem protag like you describe.
>roll back her personality to the start of the series and she should be perfect reverse-harem protagonist, with the harem members constantly monologueing at her and saying how special she is. NTA but you don't even have to roll her back, it works regardless.
>>18762>The pastebin: https://rwbyg.com/ Now that Roosterteeth is dead all RWBY & RT content including previously unreleased and Behind The Scene's stuff can now be found at
https://rtarchive.org/ at least for the time being. Dunno if VIZ's acquisition will change this or if they just leave it be, so if people want, they ought to save the content that you can, maybe make some catbox files. I might drop by the rwbyg servers and send the site owner the files if need be.
>>28156Not quite. 8kun is directly built from the ORIGINAL 8chan, just as leftypol was originally based on bunkerchan's structure. It's what it became after the downfall. But yeah, 8kun is pretty shit, so shit that it basically ended up functionally killing most of its boards.
8chan.moe is a newer lynxchan based imageboard, it's similar to the original 8chan, but it's a different site. Even the CSS code is not entirely interchangeable.
Anyway more on topic -
https://8chan.moe/rwby/ is pretty ok. A little slow, but faster than this place, nor as toxic as 4/trash/'s rwbyg remnants, or as retarded as the main RWBY subreddits.
>>23449moot point. his website explicitly states that he is american.
being japanese in race and being japanese in culture are different things.
this show was made by someone born and raised in america. it has the exact same amount of japanese influence as halo 2.
>>28178>being japanese in race and being japanese in culture are different things <japanese is a race Ethnicity. Read a book. Oum was a massive otaku of Japanese descent. He's American by citizenship and where he lived, sure but by that metric cartoons like He-Man are anime since it was animated in Japan, even though the design, authors and conception is entirely Western.
>it has the exact same amount of japanese influence as halo 2 <retard is mixing up RvB and RWBY in his head RWBY is very heavily influenced by Monty's love of anime and its Japanese culture, from the story aspects playing fast and loose with Western history and mythology to the designs of characters being clearly anime, to the direct influence of Final Fantasy, Devil May Cry, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, One Piece and more. The more Westernized aspects are something that came up later when he was long dead and gone and some of which explicitly went against his wishes (Bumblebee ship for example).
>>28187>>28178Forgot to add, RWBY also has a Japanese dub, an anime, several manga adaptations/spin-offs and a japanese LN.
>>28152Correction, currently /leftypol/ on 8chan is locked, so I think you'd need to go request Board Ownership from the Admins and see if they're mellow about it. www.8chan.moe/rwby/ is pretty active though, more active than here that's for sure. Also their /cyoa/ board is decent, better than 4chin.
>>28366>Rwby wasn't made on a toaster in someone's garageIt kinda was, at least for the original Volumes.
>her VA sucks She got worse later, her voice was fine in earlier Volumes, then the VA got older and trying to imitate the old voice came off as it does. That being said, V9 had a decent voice. Now continue here
